Air quality today
The air quality in Harare is currently classified as Good. The primary pollutant measured today is PM2.5, with a recorded concentration of 0.0807 µg/m³ (based on eight valid observations). No PM10 value is available for this assessment.
Data are shown via OpenAQ and reflect the latest sampling period. This page is informational; for health guidance, use official sources such as EPA AirNow or WHO.
Latest sensor values
PM categories follow US EPA AQI breakpoints, shown here as an estimate derived from the latest valid measurements (this project does not compute EPA NowCast/24-hour AQI yet).
What the data includes
The dataset for Harare pulls information from four monitoring sites that together contribute eight individual data rows. All of the recorded values were last updated on 2026‑02‑10 22:00 UTC, so the most recent observations are less than a month old and reflect conditions at that specific time.
Five pollutants are represented in the current feed. PM2.5 measurements range from a low of 0.0807 µg/m³ to a high of 27.0 µg/m³, with a median value of 7.5 µg/m³; this indicates that while most recent readings sit around the middle of the observed spread, occasional spikes are captured within the same update window. PM1 is reported as a single value of 0.0 µg/m³, showing no detectable particles in that size range at the time of sampling. Relative humidity is recorded at a constant 58.63 % across all rows, temperature is fixed at 22.87 °C, and particle count (UM003) stands at 149.33 particles/cm³; each of these three variables appears only once, so no range or variability can be derived from the present snapshot.
Because the data set contains a limited number of stations and many pollutants are represented by just one observation, the picture it provides is narrow in both spatial and temporal dimensions. The freshness of the timestamps is good—every metric was refreshed within the last 30 days—but the lack of multiple recent readings means that day‑to‑day fluctuations or differences between neighborhoods cannot be assessed from this snapshot alone. Users should keep in mind that air quality can change across locations and over time, and the current figures capture only a single moment at four sites in Harare.
